Zucchini Quesadillas

Katie: I wanted to take advantage of the abundance of zucchinis in season, but I knew I would have to make something attractive enough to convince Flori to eat them too. I decided to make zucchini quesadillas, based on this recipe and this recipe. Here’s how I made them:

Zucchini Quesadillas

1 Tbsp. chili powder

1 tsp. ground cumin

1 tsp. olive oil

1-2 large garlic cloves

Zucchini – I used 3 small ones

Salt and Pepper

Shredded Cheese

Kidney Beans

Tortillas

Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet and sauté the zucchini and garlic with the chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.

Remove the zucchini from the pan and clean it. Add a tortilla and top it with cheese, zucchini and beans, and top it with a second tortilla. Cook it until the cheese begins to melt. Flip it and continue cooking until the tortillas are light brown and crispy.
